"Images of at least six deities—Chicomecoatl, the goddess of crops; Xiuhtecutli, god of fire; Tlaloques, the rain god; Macuilxochilt, the flower god; Omacatl, god of feasts; and Huizilopochtli, god of war—were fabricated from tzoali for consumption in a communion ritual. The most elaborate of these ceremonies, centering on the war god, were described in detail by the colonial chronicler Father Jose de Acosta. Two days before the feast, temple maidens began grinding amaranth seed and parched maize to make a paste bound with maguey syrup." - Nelson Foster and Linda S. Cordell, Chilies to Chocolate: Food the Americas Gave the World (Get the book.)

"In this theology god is not separate from creation: god is part of the universe. God's creation is not the universe we observe and inhabit itself but the potentials of the universe for its self-creation. The first thing to note is that a primordial creative act is logically required to account for the physical parameters of the universe. The forces and constants of this universe are precisely such that complex systems, including those we call living, can evolve in space and time." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.)

"This man refused to leave, saying that he had faith in god and that god would protect him. The floodwaters came, and soon the Coast Guard boat arrived, floating by his second story window. They beseeched him to climb in the boat and be saved but he refused, once again saying that he had faith in god to protect him. Pretty soon he was up on the top of his roof, and a helicopter came by and the pilot yelled at him to get in. Once again he refused—and the man drowned. He went to heaven, and god came by. The you let me drown!" god said, "What are you talking about?" - Jacob Teitelbaum, Pain Free 1-2-3: A Proven Program for Eliminating Chronic Pain Now (Get the book.)

"The god of Fire draws the light of vision into our eyes, the god of Earth brings smells to our nose, the Sky god carries sounds to our ears, the Water god carries tastes to our tongue, and the Air god imbues our skin with feeling. Echoing this ancient insight, I believe it is essential to our health and happiness that we learn to protect, nurture, and sharpen our senses. In this chapter we will discuss how to optimize eye health and how to preserve our precious vision. A Simplified Description of the Eye The eye uses light to create vision." - Alan Keith Tillotson, Ph.D., A.H.G., D.Ay., The One Earth Herbal Sourcebook: Everything You Need to Know About Chinese, Western, and Ayurvedic Herbal Treatments (Get the book.)

"Later, Jacob asked god to send humans a sign so they would know when they were fatally ill, giving them enough time to repent before dying. Jacob's wish was granted: god created the sneeze. No wonder ancient Israelites believed sneezing portended a medical disaster. On the other hand, Aristotle and his fellow ancient Greeks believed a sneeze was a good omen. No strangers to aesthetics, ancient cultures knew the value of a good-looking nose. In fact, the first recorded nose jobs were described on papyrus by Egyptian physicians around 3000 B.C. By 600 B.C." - Joan Liebmann-Smith, Ph. D., and Jacqueline Nardi Egan, Body Signs: From Warning Signs to False Alarms...How to Be Your Own Diagnostic Detective (Get the book.)

"Dionysus, the Greek god of food and wine, and that knowledge of the gods was passed on to man via a fennel stalk. Where Is Fennel Grown? Wild fennel is the form mainly cultivated in central and eastern Europe, while sweet fennel is grown mainly in France, Italy, Greece, and Turkey. Much of the seed of European commerce comes from India. In the U.S., California and Arizona are the top producers. Why Should I Eat Fennel? Fennel is a source of fiber, folate, and potassium. It contains a significant amount of vitamin C." - David W. Grotto, RD, LDN, 101 Foods That Could Save Your Life! (Get the book.)

"Ask any doctor or nurse working with the seriously ill, and they'll tell you how overly positive comments to patients often come out as trite sayings or folklore that cause unintended damage and hurt: "Someday you'll see the silver lining in all this." "God only gives you what you can handle." "Everything happens for a reason." But the "silver lining," the "reason," or "God's challenges" can be irrelevant, infuriating, or hurtful to someone who is suffering from grief or trauma. Recasting is not about Pollyanna thinking or making lemonade out of lemons." - Rick Foster, Greg Hicks, M.D., Jen Seda, Choosing Brilliant Health: 9 Choices That Redefine What It Takes to Create Lifelong Vitality and Well-Being (Get the book.)

"Acquiescing to God's will with no specific request was about half as effective, inhibiting the cells by 21 percent, as was the Taoist visualization. An unconditional acceptance of the way things were had no effect either way, nor did imagining the cells dematerializing. In these two instances, the problem may have been that the thought was simply not focused enough. In a follow-up study, Rein asked Laskow to limit himself to two possibilities, the Taoist visualization and a request for the cells to return to the natural order." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"I think most Adventists, especially if they grew up in the 1950s and 60s, think the church was formed simply because god spoke to Ellen G. White and she wrote down what He said," Giang told me. "But if you go and read the history, the early Adventists said there was a lot of hammering things out as the church was being formed in the 1840s, 1850s, and 1860s, with Ellen White being influential in saying whether people were on the right track or the wrong track," he said." - Dan Buettner, The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest (Get the book.)

"While god was not quite the same as our creator, it was close enough, and we began to call our Great Spirit by the same name. The santos [saints] that the church recognized were like the spirits that we honor and call into our prayers. Mother Earth that brings us crops, rain, and life they called 'Mary.' We substituted their names for our beliefs." So that explained why this church looked a little different from those that I'd seen in the past. The outward symbols were masking a deeper spirituality and the true beliefs of another time. Of course! I thought." - Gregg Braden, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief: Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits (Get the book.) "Man is all Imagination," he said, clarifying, "The Eternal Body of Man is the Imagination, that is, god, Himself."15 Philosopher and poet John Mackenzie further described our relationship with the imagination, suggesting, "The distinction between what is real and what is imaginary is not one that can be finely maintained ... all existing things are . . . imaginary."16 In both of these descriptions, the concrete events of life must first be envisioned as possibilities before they can become a reality." - Gregg Braden, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief: Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits (Get the book.) "Others have referred to it with terms that range from the technical-sounding "quantum hologram" to almost spiritual-seeming names, such as the "mind of God" and "nature's mind." In my 2007 book describing the history and proof of the field, I echoed the bridging effect that it has had between science and spirituality, referring to it as the Divine Matrix. The experimental proof that Planck's matrix is real now provides the missing link that bridges our spiritual experiences of belief, imagination, and prayer with the miracles that we see in the world around us." - Gregg Braden, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief: Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits (Get the book.)

"This is because, as the anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss1 believed, every myth—whether it be about a god hurling a lightning bolt from a mountain, a hero undertaking harrowing adventures filled with sirens, storms, and ferocious beasts, or a generation of scientists trying to fight a peculiar disease of old age—is driven by the need to address the complexities of the human condition and to try to resolve paradoxes that perplex us." - Peter J. Whitehouse and Daniel George, The Myth of Alzheimer's: What You Aren't Being Told About Today's Most Dreaded Diagnosis (Get the book.)

"Not all visitors found god. There had been imaginings of alien sightings and abductions, and even a satanic ritual. One volunteer, overwhelmed by the sight of an enormous set of eyes and the smell of burning sulfur, attempted to pull himself loose from the helmet and wrench off the blindfold and earplugs. As soon as the 500-pound door was pried open for him he fled, terrorized, from the room." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"In this case, god was Newton and F = ma the First Commandment. F = ma was a central tenet in physics, postulated by Newton in his Principia, the Holy Bible of classical physics, in 1687, as the fundamental equation of motion. It was so central to physical theory that it was a given, a postulate, not something provable, but simply assumed to be true, and never argued with. Force equals mass (or inertia) times acceleration. Or, the acceleration you get is inversely proportional to mass for any given force." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.)

"In some quarters, intention is considered synonymous with prayer, and prayer synonymous with healing; when you send out an intention, god puts the intention into action. Indeed, many consciousness investigators consider these early prayer studies intention experiments. The small studies that had made use of groups of Christians to send intercessory prayers to heart patients are often construed as a group intention—an attempt by a collection of people to influence the same thing at the same time." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"Neither the Targ nor the MAHI study demonstrated that god Himself answers prayers or even that He exists. As the MAHI study was quick to point out: 'All we have observed is that when individuals outside of the hospital speak (or think) the first names of hospitalized patients with an attitude of prayer, the latter appeared to have a "better" CCU experience.''9 In fact, in Elisabeth's study, it didn't seem to matter what method you used, so long as you held an intention for a patient to heal." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.)

"The Old Testament banned Jews from saying the name of god. In fact, the name itself-Yahweh-was nearly unpronounceable. But some argue that without realizing it, the first and last breaths (and many of the other ones in between) that we take in life are actually the name of god. Take a deep diaphragmatic breath in as you inspire the sound "yah," and then push it out all the way until you wheeze the sound "weh." Perhaps spiritul guidance is closer than we think. pands during normal shallow breathing, that stimulates the vagus nerve." - Mehmet C. Oz., M.D. and Michael F. Roizen, M.D., You: Staying Young: The Owner's Manual for Extending Your Warranty (Get the book.)

"This society, Tipler identifies as god. I have mentioned several respects in which Tipler's 'God' differs from the god or gods that most religious people believe in. There are further differences, too. For instance, the people near the omega point could not, even if they wanted to, speak to us or communicate their wishes to us, or work miracles (today). They did not create the universe, and they did not invent the laws of physics ?nor could they violate those laws if they wanted to." - David Deutsch, The Fabric of Reality: The Science of Parallel Universes and Its Implications (Get the book.)

"It even echoed the Old Testament's account of God's first dictum: 'Let there be light', out of which matter was created.'1 Hal was eventually to demonstrate in a paper published by Physical Review, one of world's most prestigious physics journals, that the stable state of matter depends for its very existence on this dynamic interchange of subatomic particles with the sustaining zero-point energy field."* In quantum theory, a constant problem wrestled with by physicists concerns the issue of why atoms are stable." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.) "He hadn't seen the face of god. It didn't feel like a standard religious experience so much as a blinding epiphany of meaning - what the Eastern religions often term an 'ecstasy of unity'. It was as though in a single instant Ed Mitchell had discovered and felt The Force. He stole a glance at Alan and Stu Roosa, the other astronaut on the Apollo 14 mission, to see if they were experiencing anything remotely similar." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.)
